"Besides multiple releases + holdover titles posing stiff opposition, one must also consider the fact that #BajrangiBhaijaan arrives in China after 30 months of its release in India, unlike #Dangal and #SecretSuperstar that were released a few months after their release in India," Taran tweeted further.

Helmed by Kabir Khan, Bajrangi Bhaijaan also stars Kareena Kapoor and Nawajuddin Siddiqui in supporting roles. Salman Khan plays Bajrangi, an ardent devotee of Hindu deity Hanuman, who embarks on taking a mute six-year-old Pakistani girl, separated in India from her parents, back to her hometown in Pakistan.

'Bajrangi' won many a heart due to Salman factor and its theme of Indo-Pak relations.
